Artist's Profile
Kaylenne Creighton
NEW GALLERY AT RIVERSIDE PLAZA SHEPPARTON VICTORIA
 |
Kaylenne's Australian Landscapes have sold to private collectors in over 15 countries and its always been her ambition to open her own Commercial Gallery. Queensland was considered, but then Riverside Plaza had just opened so after great consideraton it seemed the perfect place to open a new Gallery and not far from her studio. Being a self taught artist with no formal training Kaylenne wanted the public to be able to visualize and appeciate her unique style of work and also offer clients affordable pieces of Artwork with a range of Prints and Limited Editions of Australian Landscapes, she also plans to paint every state of Australia so clients can have a momento of being there and if not inspire to travel to those places.
Travelling in 2009 to Hamilton Island and White Haven Beach in the Whitsundays added to the Australian Landscapes
Western Australia and its wild flowers will be added to her Landscapes in 2010
If Kaylenne Creighton and her husband Murray had found the painting they were looking for many years ago Kaylenne might never have discovered her talent as an Artist.
The couple were looking for a painting for their newly renovated home but couldn't find what they were looking for, so Kaylenne decided to have a go at painting the scene in front of their home- a white horse under the poplar trees. She never did get around to finishing that particular scene as buying paints led to unleashing an unwrapped talent.
As a child Kaylenne always did well in art classes and would often draw , she received many awards at school and locals shows for her art. Being raised on a country property she loved the Sunsets and Gum Trees which are displayed in a lot of her work, it wasn't long before people would buy or commission her work, mainly sunsets, bush and river landscapes.
Kaylenne opened her first Studio Gallery called Sunset Studio Gallery near Cobram, then began travelling to Far North Queensland to extend her landscapes with Tropical scenes, Alice Springs and Ayers Rock to paint the Outback and always not far from the Murray River to extend her work.
Kaylenne held her first International Solo Exhibition in Japan, the exhibition was a huge success and she was invited back for another Solo Exhibition the following year,
After a client of Kaylenne's had seen her paintings of Alice Springs and the Outback it was suggested that she paint Carnarvon Gorge in Queensland, but timing was a major factor and impossible to travel there due to work commitments. That was over 9 years ago and now after 3 trips in 2006/07/08 with backpack of paints and brushes to paint and gather as much information on the beautiful Sandstone Cliffs and hidden gorges with their flora and fauna to paint, Kaylenne has Painted the Gorge at Sunset, Boolimba Bluff at Sunrise, Cliffs with Carnarvon Creek and the beautiful Moss Garden. The first Limited Edition Print of the Gorge was released in 2008 titled "Moss Garden" and features the Azure Kingfisher.
Kaylenne has had Solo Exhibitions in Japan, Palm Cove Qld, Melbourne, Shepparton & Cobram. Her work has been sold to private collectors in over 15 countries around the world.
Over the years she has donated her Art to many Charities and Organizations for their worthy causes as well as some of her time to show local school children how to paint.
Western Australia and its Wild Flowers will be added to her landscapes in 2010
Kaylenne's range of artwork will be extended and is available for sale online.
